Textbook Question
Chapter 44, Problem 1A
You think one of your teammates is using anabolic steroids to build muscle. You know that continued use of steroids can cause profound changes in cell function. This is due in part to the fact that these hormones act

b. by activating second messengers.
c. as protein kinases.
d. via G protein–coupled receptors.
